Wide Variety: Choose the BriteOptic™ Projector that Best Meets Your Needs PT-L6600U SXGA Projector • Ultrabright 3600 ANSI lumens • New BriteOptic™ technology and UHM™ lamps • True SXGA (1366 x 1024), maximum UXGA (1600 x 1200) resolution • Intelligent Image Resizing for VGA/SVGA/SXGA/Mac displays • Multiple terminals, including digital video interface (DVI) • Easy installation and maintenance • Stackable for double brightness (up to 7200 ANSI lumens)

PT-L6500U XGA Projector Ultrabright 3600 ANSI lumens • New BriteOptic™ technology and UHM™ lamps • True XGA (1024 x 768), maximum UXGA (1600 x 1200) resolution • Intelligent Image Resizing for VGA/SVGA/SXGA/Mac displays • Multiple terminals, including digital video interface (DVI) • Easy installation and maintenance • Stackable for double brightness (up to 7200 ANSI lumens)

PT-L6600UL/L6500UL The PT-L6600UL/L6500UL delivers the same superior performance as the PT-L6600U and PT-L6500U, respectively, but come with no lens. Combine them with an optional lens to get the exact performance you need according to usage and operating conditions.

A Host of Panasonic’s Leading Technologies

Ultrahigh Brightness and Contrast

Installation options Two ceiling mount brackets are available, one for high ceilings and one for lower ceilings. A bracket and a simpler stacking mount are also available, for quick, easy, temporary stacking of two units.

Panasonic’s advanced BriteOptic™ Dual Lamp System delivers both 3,600 ANSI lumens of brightness and superior color reproducibility. A corrective film is used to compensate for phase shifts in the light incident to the LCD panel, helping obtain a high contrast ratio. The result is reproduction of crisp, clear, super-bright images with outstanding depth.

Easy setup and maintenance The PT-L6600U and L6500U feature a symmetrical design that places the lens right at the center, making it easier to position the projector and screen. Maintenance is easier too, thanks to a design that lets you replace a lamp without removing the projector from the bracket in either the ceiling-mounted or dual stacking configuration.

High Resolution & Intelligent Image Resizing The PT-L6600U/L6600UL offers true SXGA resolution (UXGA max.) and the PT-L6500U/ L6500UL gives true XGA resolution (UXGA max.), allowing display of detailed computer graphics and text. When displaying images of other types, the signals are expanded or compressed through a digital processing system. This assures smooth outlines and outstanding picture definition with all types of images.

anyplace where bright, beautiful images are a plus. Also, the superb resolution made possible by digital RGB input delivers images with exceptional detail and accuracy. This makes the PT-L6600U and L6500U suitable for use as main systems for monitoring traffic or electric power, or in operation centers such as police, fire, air traffic control, and space development centers.

One-Touch Auto Setup This function automatically identifies the signal mode of the input source and adjusts the image accordingly. You get optimal viewing quality, with no additional software, equipment or manual adjustment necessary.

Lens Shift Shift the projected image vertically even after the projector is set in position. The PT-L6600U/L6500U has a great adjustment range, and the image remains distortion free.

Increased Reliability Lamps can be easily replaced.

Flexible connection A host of uses

The PT-L6600U and L6500U are equipped with a digital video interface (DVI), which lets you connect with PCs for full digital image processing. You can also input signals from digital TV and DVD sources.

The PT-L6600U and L6500U provide the quality and performance needed in almost any application. Use them in meeting rooms, theaters, museums, convention halls, public spaces, schools, research labs—

These projectors have a long lamp life of 3,000 hours (at dual lamp operation). With BriteOptic™ Dual Lamp System, even if one lamp burns out, the remaining lamp provides sufficient brightness. This offers you the peace of mind that comes with the reliability of virtualzero downtime.
